I don't use Projectile and never looked at its code, so I can't
answer that.  I don't know either how Projectile compares to Emacs's
builtin support for projects (tho I expect it's significantly more
featureful), but you may want to try that builtin support instead of
Projectile to see if it suffers from a similar problem, and/or if it
provides the subset of features you happen to use.
